So, how much has it cost me to retrofit air conditioning?

Donor parts: Free (Thank you Paul V)
New receiver/drier: £200
ECU pins: £10
Wiring harness/relay (mate’s rates): £50
New engine cooling radiator: £100
Ramp time: £120 (avoidable if compressor fitted when the rads were out)
Compressor overhaul: £300
Re-gassing: £120
Total: £900

So, it is possible but it’s neither easy, nor cheap, but it is cool! :cool
Or come and get most if not all of the above from my unit for £200.... but be quick

How quickly do you need it collecting?

Earliest I could potentially collect is Sunday PM/evening, depending on the shift I’m working (will find out on Wednesday). Any good?

I'll get a big box ready, it's quite a lot of kit.
